Discovery Announcement ~ The densest element in  the known  Universe has finally been found.  Pelosium:   A major research institution has just announced  the discovery  of the densest element yet known to science. The new element  has been named Pelosium. Pelosium has one neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons,  and 223 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass  of 311. These particles are held together by dark forces  called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons. The symbol of Pelosium is PU.  Pelosium's mass actually increases over time,  as morons  randomly interact with various elements in the atmosphere  and become assistant  deputy neutrons within the Pelosium molecule, leading to the  formation of isodopes.  This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some  scientists to believe that Pelosium is formed whenever morons reach a  certain quantity invoting concentration.  

47 years of marriage.. A married couple in their 60s are celebrating their 47th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant in Florence, Italy.  Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.' The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world  with my darling husband  The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.'  The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish! So the fairy waved her magic wand and poof!... The husband became 92 years old.    The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bas$tard$ should remember fairies are female..

My first package showed up about a week ago or a lil more. It had four low budget knives in it and a bunch of stickers. I thought it a lil odd, as it seemed kinda random, but was Thankful for someone sending me a present. Well turns out Santa has a senze of humor. I came home from work this am to find another box. Santa ordered up some presents from Northern Crescent iron. As a blacksmith, I find this compaines work is incredibly impressive. The dice are gonna be carried as a conversation piece from time to time. The detail on the spike knife is stunning. From the bottom of my heart, Thank you Santa.

The only good thing to come out of being in a place with an idiot like that:   The bad guys will shoot him first which will give me more time to draw and fire my concealed weapon.  

... and it's not even about winning or loosing.   Being a Titans QB this year has to be one of the most dangerous jobs in the lower 48.   I really feel for Locker - I believe he could've had a very successful career with another team who could protect him.     this year is likely to be the end of his career.   shoot. darn, heck-fire.

Found this monster at Lowe's this afternoon while picking out paint for the nursery. Quarter for size comparison.

I bought this H1 in Oct. of 2008, turned it on, and it has been on ever since. Today I went to switch it to a different rifle and it was dead. After 6 years the battery finally died. 50,000+ hours. That's pretty good battery life if you ask me.

Have you seen this?   http://fox17.com/news/features/featured/stories/report-peyton-manning-could-buy-tennessee-titans-2015-3868.shtml     Honestly, I have never wanted to like Peyton Manning because of the savior-image Vols fans have always projected on him.  I moved to Tennessee in the height of Manning Fever and for some reason it just soured me.  That said, you can't deny that the guy knows how to play the game and he's really matured as an NFL quarterback since leaving Indianapolis.  I always liked to joke that his favorite position was the Fetal Position when he played for the Colts, because as soon as the defensive line crumbled he was quick to curl up rather than take a hit.   But, this might be the thing that fixes the Titans.  They do need a good house-cleaning from top to bottom and Peyton is a competitive player and savvy businessman.  I think it will take him or someone like him to straighten the franchise out.   The way it is right now, I'd be surprised if very many people keep their season tickets for 2015.  The current Titans suck.

Dude, keep that 3" 624!

"Reminded me of the first barbershop I visited as a kid in the atmosphere of men sitting around talking " ... Spots ... sigh ... oh for the days of the old fashioned barbershop. Barbers that had been in the same shop for years. Wood paneling with mounted fish on the walls. Barber chairs that were built like tanks. The magazines were 6 year old "Field & Streams". The old fellow over in the corner that could do a hell of a "Spit Shine" ... sigh ...

The cure has already been found and will be released in January 2015................ :up: :up: :up:

  So you're saying Open Carry saved you some money? lol

That's not what they meant when they said some rounds "cooked off." :-D

What I've done with magazines with sleeves is to slide them up and put a piece of clear tape around the base then slide the sleeve back on. Nice snug fit and it doesn't move around.

I would tell the landowner that he is using illegal hunting tactics. If that doesn't get the dude run off, the call TWRA and find a different place to hunt. Do not go back and hunt with that bait on the ground.

Bryant Gumbel interviewed Billy Graham's daughter after 911 attack. Gumbel: Why didn't God stop this or do something about this? Billy Graham's daughter: For years we have told God we didn't want Him in our schools. We didn't want Him in our government and we didn't want Him in our finances and God was being a perfect gentleman in doing just what we asked Him to do. We need to make up our mind- do we want God or do we not want Him. We cannot just ask Him in when disaster strikes. Bryant Gumbel was silent.

I thought there was some creepy cracker taking my pic at the shop the other day. You're just jealous of my custom bad ass rig. Some people have to choose between the awesome stopping capability of the .45 and the inherent capacity advantage of the Glock. I call those people sheep. It was hard training my one hand to angle the Glock right while dual wielding, but I think anyone with some sense can agree the results are worth the effort.

I have 3 Kahrs,they really rock,priced right and are USA made...Glock already has the prefect 9MM in the G26 now all they need to do is make a G26 Slim and call it a day

I don't know why it's illegal...hell, you can plant a food plot with "deer goodies from hell" and be legal. Drop one handful of corn on the ground..it's jail time! makes no sense to me!!! Dave S

http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/12/10/35-muzzle-devices-tested-ttag/ Saw this on 68forums. I'm curious to see sound level testing as well. Seems like common sense for the most part, as the ones that look the loudest and direct the blast to the side and rearward reduced recoil the most.

Made this tonight out of an old spam can and some leather straps I had cut for something else. [URL=http://s1246.photobucket.com/user/gjohnsoniv/media/Mobile%20Uploads/1213141950a_zps25560089.jpg.html][/URL]

  Why not? Every 1911 manufacturer out there has been doing it for years. :stir:

Shucks. Guess I'm an infidel. It's cool. Isis has a battle on their own turf right now. It's the pathetic stragglers that venture off to do their own thing that are causing a stir right now.

Looking forward to Ohio St in 3 weeks...

Lol! Roll Tide! Just picked my son up from campus earlier today.

Wasn't me I drive an F-350

Lol wasnt me...this time....freakin Memphis drivers....

If you buy a can find a dealer in Tn who stocks what you want, if you buy out of state you'll wait for a Form 3 transfer, that time can very from weeks to months (most likely months). See if a dealer will demo one for you, there has to be several around Nashville...

Search for "Honey Badger AR" and you will find all the details you could want. ;) https://www.google.com/search?q=honey+badger+ar&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=643&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=qBOOVLyONs30aOK-gYAJ&ved=0CB0QsAQ

The Titans (my favorite team) need to clean house and start over!   Dave

Probably a Surefire SOCOM Mini can http://www.surefire.com/socom556-mini.html

From what I've noticed NC is pretty liberal. So it makes sense they have asinine laws

I am by NO means and expert, but I have been doing a lot of can shopping here lately and I will say this, I have not seen one with that rounded over end. That would make me speculate it is some type of custom made (maybe Form 1) or tieing it to the lower some type of Red Jacket one off type of deal.   I will also offeryou this. If you want to use a can 10.5" is about as short as you want to go. I am not saying you can's use one on a shorter upper but everything I have found on the interwebz seems to state that they are much less effective. Most manufacturers will have a minimum barrel length listed for a given can.

You need to get you one of those new smart guns! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had a great squad and a great time. Stage three I discovered another weakness. Denny was happy the bank thermometer said 51°

If you decide you're done hunting, i recommend that get naked as a jay bird, put a mask over your face, and go clean up the bait piles. Then just leave a note on the camera. "You're doing it wrong. Look at the pictures, and you can become a master baiter."

In North Carolina he could be charged with "Going Armed To The Terror Of The People".

THAT is why I CC.   I saw someone come in with just a single, uncovered shoulder holster at Rooms To Go in Chatt. a couple of months ago.  I pointed him out to the wife and it got me out of furniture shopping for the rest of the night.   Glenn

There's no such thing as a coincidence.  Someone was trying to get in.

  I received my gift today and words cannot express how much I appreciate the lengths my Secret Santa, and his helper, went through to find me a perfect gift. I was honestly at a loss for words upon reading the letter. Caring enough to to do what you did on my behalf is humbling. I am sure it was not easy to find me the perfect gift but you did and I truly appreciate it more than words can say. And I can honestly say that anyone who would do what you guys did, and give me the gift you did, is a true friend. I want you guys to know that if there is ever anything you need please feel free to ask.     And for those of you who are wondering what my Secret Santa gave me, they gave me money. But what they gave me was more than just money. They also wrote a heartfelt letter, that made this gift very, very personal. And cash allows me to buy the perfect gift which, in the end, is all my, or any, Secret Santa wants for the person getting the gift.   In closing I would like to say thanks. Thanks to my Secret Santa for giving me the perfect gift and a personal letter. I would like to say thanks to Metalhead for putting this on. I would also like to thank TGO David for providing us with a place for our TGO family to come together, share our lives , our stories as well as the highs, and the lows, with other members of our TGO family.

  I have one and really like it.  The Miculek is effective and loud...one of the reasons I got it.   It's also considerably cheaper than other brakes of similar design...the other reason I bought it.  There's no reason to spend a whole lot of money just to be obnoxious.  :pleased:

Thats right. At the minimum you shoot those 2 one in Manchester and one in Oak Ridge and you have your scores. Or do like a bunch of people tell me they will do and shoot them all!!!

I wouldn't bet any of my money on a factory making millions of rounds of ammo with zero defects, regardless of trendy Japanese techniques.

  What a crock of B.S.....   I guess you forgot about the R51? People have been complaining for years and they are just NOW doing something about it. This is purely a CYA move.

Mechanical devices can fail. If you follow the rules of gun safety it is nearly impossible to shoot someone. Switching off a safety on a loaded rifle while it is pointed at your son is reckless. Glock has been plagued with accusations that the gun went off without pulling the trigger for years. Did they recall them? No, they offered “upgrades”. I’ve seen many times those new to firearms posting that there is no such thing as a “accidental discharge” only “negligent discharges” and that a gun can’t discharge without pulling the trigger; that is what they have been told, and it is wrong. I sent my 700 in and they replaced the trigger and sent it back. Did it need it? Probably not, but it didn’t cost me anything so I had it done. My rifle isn’t loaded unless it’s pointed down range, and the trigger is excellent; so I didn’t want to pay $150 for a trigger I don’t need. Remington is trying to do what’s right. They are a great American Firearms Company that makes an excellent product. I wish them continued success.

I load my own so what ever is on sale, I'm more interested in a well placed shot then what I'm slinging at them

[quote name='Jonnin' timestamp='1351991996' post='838587'] I won't break the law but I was looking into hunting for the food aspect -- one animal, for food only. Dead is dead and I see no difference between an efficent kill via bait vs trekking thru the woods for a month. It would not be a "sport" or "fun" for me, it would be a chore (and a brutal one at that) of gathering food. I can respect that others see it differently, and I have a very low opinion of lawbreaking, but the actual act does not seem "unethical" to me, it seems like a better method that has been banned to make a chore even more difficult. But you know me, always trying to apply logic. [/quote] I see your point, BUT....fair chase is LEGAL and BAITING is NOT! Decisions, decisions.... Dave S
